The Off Campus Student Association (OCSA) recently held its first sports day with off-campus and residence students participating in a soccer tournament. The tournament was won by the off-campus team KPA, who was rewarded with an R2 000 cheque from Mr Rudi Buys, Dean of Students.
Bonolo Thebe, SRC member Sport, says the sports day brought students together and the organisation plans to host it annually. Sporting codes like netball, hockey and basketball will be added to the planned annual event.
